About Sylvan

Sylvan is the last of his litter, and he’s in New England, waiting for a loving home. Friendly and nearly house trained, he’s a handsome little guy that has already made great strides. At just four months old, this Lab mix is smart and eager to please. His foster mom shares that he’s fully potty trained, even braving the rain to do his business. Sylvan has mastered climbing stairs and showcases his intelligence by obeying commands like sit and wait. Curious by nature, he loves to explore and cuddle on your lap, offering plenty of sweet kisses. They've started taking him on small walks, and he’s quickly learning to walk nicely on a leash. He enjoys playing with other dogs but does tend to chase cats, needing guidance to learn boundaries with them. Sylvan is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. This adorable pup is also doing well in his crate with minimal whining. Sylvan would thrive in a home with other pets and would fit well with children too. Click apply to start the adoption process.
